Canals Next WASHINGTON. Jan. 19.—Director General McAdoo today explained to the senate interstate commerce committee the operation of government control of railroads, and urged speedy passage ot. the administration railroad bill by con gress in order to clarify the financial situation so as to permit the floating of 110,000.000.000 in bonds by the gov ernment before the end of the present fiscal year He also asserted that gov ernment operation would be extended to canals and inland waterways if it was considered necessary. Mr. McAdoo spent more than two hours before the committee, during which he was freely questioned regard ing the necessity for government con trol of the carriers and the compensa tion of short line railroads. He will appear again Monday, and probably will go before a house committee later. Investigations are being made, the director general said, to determine what short line railroads are to be retained over, he declared will not be compensat ed and if they suffer damages redreen will have to be obtained in the courts. He said it was not proposed to keep control of any unnecessary lines. Mr. McAdoo said the present railroad organisations would continue to be em ployed as long as they are satisfac tory. -I don't feel that the government ought to employ anybody who isn't nec essary,” he declared, “but I feel that we should not disintegrate the railroad organizations until congress has decided the future of the railroads.” Director General McAdoo said some good has been accomplished in the three weeks of government control through re-routing, distributions and co-ordina tion. Questioned regarding the necessitj for government control, Mr. McAdoo said it was made necessary by the rail roads' lack of facilities tq handle in creased war traffic and their failure tc properly co-ordinate. Disclaiming an; intention to censure the carriers, he said blame for not meeting the trans portation situation rested upon them because of their failure to Increase their facilities in 1916 and 1917. In those vears. he said, they spent less for im provements than in previous years, de spite increased traffic. Mr. McAdoo urged that the appropria tion of 1500,000.000 in the bill be re tained to enable the government to in crease facilities or to make good defi ciencies. although he hoped it would not be necessary to use the money for this purpose. ' , „ . With the approval of Mr. McAdoo, an amendment to the railroad bill au thorising the president to make separate arrangements for compensation with carriers which had to deal with abnor mal financial conditions during the three year period ending June 30, 1917, was presented today to the house interstate commerce commission. The amendment is designed to meet the requirements of the short lines. John Barton Payne, represetlng the director general, testified today before the house committee that Mr. McAdoo claims the right to fix. railroad rates under the proclamation of the president taking over the railroads.

British Admiralty Diagram Shows Certain Failure of Hun Submarine Campaign Tonnage Sunk Steadily De creasing Since June, 1917, as U-Boat Losses Mount Higher LONDON. Dec. ,19. —(Correspondence of the Associated Press) —Diagrams just issued by the British admiralty empha size the two vital facts in the anti-sub marine campaign—that the tonnage of merchant ships sunk by enemy action has rapidly declined since last June, while the number of German submarines sunk has steadily increased since Sep tember, 1916. While this situation gen erally has been understood in conse quence of several statements 'by repre sentatives of the government, the result of the battle against the submarines has never before been placed so clearly'in the. public* mind as it is by these official charts now issued. Most of the official announcements have been in general terms such as that made in the house of commons on December 13, when the ■head of the admiralty stated that the “general curves of merchant tonnage sunk by enemy action and of German submarines sunk Eire satisfactory.” The curves or diagrams made public by the’ government covered the period from March,. 1916, tfi December. 1917. They are divided into sections, each of three months, showing the increase or decline for that period. In making them public the admiralty announced that they were statistically accurate, based on facts up to December, 17, and include no estimated nor uncer tain figures. With regards to the dia gram dealing with the losses of mer chant tonnage, the admiralty stated that “the height of the enemy submarine at tack up the merchantmen was In April, 1917, and that accounts for the quarter ending June showing the ‘peak,’ since when the-curve has steadily fallen, and in the last quarter of this year has reached the same figure as in the last quarter of 1916, which was before the unrestricted submarine attack began.” Concerning the diagram showing the number of German submarines sunk the STATE’S CONVICTS MAY BE EMPLOYED TO CUT WOOD FUEL County Wardens, Commis sioners and Ordinaries in State Are Notified by the Prison Commission State convicts may be used to cut wood to supplement the supply of coal In the present coal fuel shortage, under an order Issued Saturday morning by the state prison commission, which was authorized to take such action by a rul ing from Attorney General Clifford Walker. County wardens, commissioners and ordinaries throughout the state have been notified by the prison commission of its action in the premises and, wher ever necessity demands, convict gangs may be put to work without delay con verting standing timber Into fuel tor the relief of sufferers from the fuel shortage. The order of the prison commission reads in part as follows: “The attorney general having advis ed that when a state of war exists and there follows from such condition a fail ure of the ordinary fuel supply, result ing in a fuel famine and subjecting the people of the county to cold, suffering and danger of disease and death, that the authorities may legally employ its convicts in supplying wood without charge to paupers and with charge, not exceeding the market prices, to others, the proceeds to be appjied to the ex pense of maintaining the convicts. “Under this the county authorities may use their discretion in using the convict forces to relieve an emergency in view of the shortage by cutting wood and disposing of it, thereby relieving such suffering as may exist either in giving it free to people unable to pay for same, or charging fair market value to others and using proceeds for main taining the convicts while engaged in the work.” The use of convicts to relieve the coal situation was brought to the attention of the attorney general by Chairman R. E. Davidson, of the stite prison com mission, who asked Mr. Walker to pre pare an opinion as to the legality of such action. Governor Dorsey had pre viously requested the prison commis sion to obtain such a ruling from the attorney general and to formulate such rules as might be necessary In the event the opinion was favorable to the plan. The governor, following the issuance of Mr. Walker's ruling, indicated in his letter to Judge Davidson that the offi cials of the Soldier's Home, near Atlan ta have offered 100 cords of wood for the relief of the public if convict labor can be used to cut it. Tn view of this fact. Governor Dorsey stated that the wood supply contracted for the capitol would be turned over to the public, if a por tlon of the 100 cords at the Soldiers’ Hom<i could be secured to replace it as necessity demanded.

The girl, who defied secret service op eratives for 36 hours by giving numer ous false names and addressee, is being closely guarded. United States Commis sioner Mason declaring the case is of such a dangerous nature that no one will be permitted to see her. It was intimated search is being made in connection with the case for a secret code used by German propagandists. The girl told authorities tonight that she was born in San Luca, a town in northern Italy and came to America with her father four years ago, landing at New Orleans. After working in Wise ville, La., and Mounds, La., she went to Youngstown, according to her story. The dynamite, she declared, was given her by a friend in Youngstown to be delivered to some one in Chicago. She refused to tell the name of the man who gave her the explosive or to whom it was to be delivered. A slip of paper bearing a Chicago street address, which she tried to swallow when arrested, so far has* proved worthless, for the ad dress is a vacant lot. The explosive was discovered by. a ne gro porter on the train from Youngs town. The passengers were placed in another car and police notified. Federal officers today called atten tion to a Youngstown woman known as Laura Jose, in connection with the case, and a robbery of dynamite in Youngstown recently. Laura Jose is well known to Youngstown police, it was said. She was last seen in Youngstown previous to the theft of a large quantity &f dynamite from a construction camp. Since then she has not been heard from, according to the police. Whether they believe the “dynamite girl” held here has any connection with Laura Jose, police would not say. fertillzeiTplants” MAY RUN, SAYS ORDER Fuel Administration Yields to Senators Trammel and Fletcher of Florida BY RALPH SMITH WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.—Fuel Ad ministrator Garfield today made a rul ing, in compliance with a request made yesterday by Senators Fletcher and Trammell, of Florida, that fertilizer factories shall be exempt from the coal shut-down order Issued Thursday. This means that there will be no curtailment of the fertilizer output in Georgia, and that farming interests which are now dependent upon their supplies from the factories will not suffer. Had this order not been revoked, it would, in the opin ion of the Florida senators, have been most embarrassing to the farming inter ests of the south, and would also have caused many, thousands of dollars' dam age. Yesterday these senators called upon Dr. Garfield and strongly urged that the fertilizer concerns be exempted from the order issued, but it was not until this morning that they were notified bhat they had been successful.

Lee. In the event that President Wilson finds it impossible to accept the invitation tendered him, the resolution asks the president to name a speaker to fill his place on the occasion. More than half the chairs usually oc cupied by the state senators of Geor gia were filled with white-haired sol diers of a war gone by, in striking con trast to the khaki-clad youths of the Three Hundred Twenty-sixth infafitry band, of Camp Gordon, which furnished the musical portion of the program. That aontrast was the keynote of the afternoon. In a short address which brought veterans and civilians alike to their feet repeatedly, Dr. M. Ashby Jones, pastor of the Ponce De Leon Avenue Baptist church, declared that the duties of the boys In gray are a heritage to the soldier of 1918 and that the mantle of Lee, who led his countrymen to sacrifice for high ideals, has fallen on the shoulders of Wood row Wilson. “As for me,” said Dr. Jones. “I want to help send men to congress who think as Wilson thinks. When a voice Is raised against an order of the presi dent, after the order is in force and the time for discussion past, there speaks treason.” Owing to the fact that a chilly hall was causing discomfort, Dr. Jones had asked Chairman Watkins, of the Fulton county council of defense, to announce that he would not speak, but the au dience, stirred to a high pitch of pa triotism by the resolutions just passed, called insistently for the famous orator, and he responded. Text of Resolutions These were the resolutions adopted, setting forth the plan for a great state wide patriotic rally, to be held in At lanta on Washington's birthday, with the president of the United States as a possible speaker. Whereas, This meeting is as sembled in accordance with the proclamation of his excellency, the Governor of Geiygia, as outline in the ringing terms of said message, and: Wereas, This, the birthday of our own great Robert E.

Mr. Nolan reviewed the life and character of Rob ert E Lee and the white heads nodding in approbation throughout the audience core witness to the faithfulness of his portrayal. Two Confederate veterans were pre sented with crosses of honor by the At lanta chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Those honored were A. J. Shropshire and Gum Harrison. Every man who fought for the south is entitled to wear a cross of a certain des-lgnated type. From time to time the United Daughters of the Confederacy workers discover some old soldier who has never received his badge Os serv ice rendered, and the veteran is formal ly decorated at the next available pub lic opportunity. Miss Elliot Todhunter. daughter of Colonel Ryland Todhunter. of Missouri, a Confederate leader who fought at the battle of Atlanta and was left on tbe field of Chickamaugua for dead, recited twr poems written for the occasion by Frank Stanton. “When the Boys Come Back” was the title of one and it caus ed tears among those who listened. The c«her was a laughable, lovable plaint of a southern darky who has “seven sons with the gov’ment guns.” On the floor and in the crowded gal lery, intense enthusiasm was apparent, despite the fact that the fuel situation caused the hall to be meagerly heated. It was stated after the meeting by Chairman Watkins, of the Fulton County Council of Defense, that the plans discussed Saturday afternoon were the prelude to the greatest patriotic gathering tlie south has ever seen. Mr. Watkins said that other counties over the state were preparing to do their share, and that Washington’s birthday would find Atlanta the mecca of pa triotic Georgia. barrasking and frequent bladder trou bles day »nd night, irritation, sediments, 6 Lack of control, smarting, uric acid rheumatism, "bloating, maybe loss ot flesh, sallow complexion.
